It's my favorite time of year to go for a walk. It's not hot, it's not raining and the color of the leaves is gorgeous. This is Contra Loma, in Antioch. Enjoy a walk in a park near you it's cheaper than therapy.

In this issue of the SPOTLIGHT. Ice skating is back daily, Thanksgiving Day Dinners To-Go, a Wine Release Party, and Asahi Con. When this was posted I didn't have a clue what it was. Then I looked into it and support it. Thanks for reading.
